Yeah plan on putting some buckles and straps on it so it can wrap-around tighter

I like it but I was told never to trust a man in crocs

😂👌🏻 True.

Great hack! I bought a swagman, and $150 was a hard pill to swallow. O plus $50 for a poncho. lol

If you’re sewing skills aren’t as good as this guy, You can get a Swagman roll by helikon tex. either way Bushcraft is all about making the most out of what you have as shown in the video 👍

I saw a 3 in1 blanket ,cushion, poncho with a zip like this I think they used a similar idea I use mine with a poncho over it to make sure it's water right great idea though

Nice one sir, but why didn't you demonstrate yourself wearing it? 🙈

Great Idea.

What size is rhe zipper for the head 12" or so??

you would think those would be slotted already?

Yeah that would make sense but you know you're dealing with the military application so it's just basically made for a lightweight sleeping bag when you tie it to the poncho liner then fold it in half and slide in

I wonder how it would work out to do this with Velcro instead of a zipper and use low temp. seam tape to attach it to the Poncho Liner. Zippers seem to fail just when you need them the most.

Velcro is nice and everything but then you always have to worry about the hook side scratching your neck

Brilliant idea. Simple too.

Just make sure you put the hookside on the part you take off and leave the soft loop side on whatever you rub up against your body

Put it on!

the woobie looks thin, is it warm?

All military surplus woobies seem to thin. Let’s just say if it’s snowing, your going to be cold

Helikon Tex liner 65,00 $ or Mil-Tec liner 24.00 $ + thick woolen military blanket on top (inside the house) and not cold at all,if you also put on the waterproof poncho (3 layers) nothing gets through....you sew the woolen blanket (poncho) yourself...they are made for "summer" camping... by themselves they are not warm, you have to "tease" them...

Well it depends on how you sleep me basically they can go down about 40ﾟ and then that's about it I was 1st introduced to them when I was in the military so I've been using it for a long time only bad thing about nylon is with anything it slides all over the place so if you want it as a top quilt it's gonna be on the ground before you're done sleeping overnight

Zippers aren't new. Google ranger Rick's poncho liner conversion kit. I do like the snaps idea.
